He has been rocking these etnies for while now..........
DARKSTAR63 commented under mikelevy's blog ( Dec 2, 2011 at 6:59 )
Unless the tread design is trademarked it is fair play. If it is.......which it might be, then other designs may acually pay some fees to Maxxis to use their tread pattern. Which would be in Maxxis best intrest since these tires will appear on many stock units of Specialized and Treak bicycles. Maxxis will always sell well in spite of clone designs. Of course it is possible that Maxxis does indeed make these tires. Bicycle companies do not typically make their rubber in house. They will always be made by a tire company and stamped with the company logo.

Yeah you have to be careful bashing skate shoes when they are used for riding. The best skate shoes have really soft rubber for board grip and flexible soles for enhanced board feel. A great bicycle shoe this does not make. I used to wear them for bmx but when you use them on mtb pedals with tall sharp pins- they dont hold up.

It's funny, when I rode bmx way back when all I wore were etnies. They were the best thing I could find at the time for street riding. I loved the classic lo-cut and the original Vallely. I also owned a pair of Taj shoes that I wore in the woods for a bit. I love to see some more MTB oriented offerings.

bb spacers work, take apart an old cassette and use the spacers from that(sometimes theyre plastic though) a couple bags of wheels mfg. cassette spacers should to the trick too.

Thanks for taking the time to reply, I had a piston seize on me last weekend, it is STUCK! even at full force with a pair of pliers it ain't going back into the bore, I'm a bit ruff when it comes to my bike service as I'm new to bikes and take allot from my car days, it just goes to show patients and care are required, I best try calm down and take my time. thanks again.
